World of Wonder The Whimsical Kitchen

S    interior designers can be a near-impossible feat and Prestige Global Designs makes the decision even harder. The company’s designs are second-to-none and include residential projects and even kitchen design.

Accessed by a private lift, the 2,400 sq. ft. World of Wonder apartment in the Principal Garden condominium in Singapore has a single-storey layout with five bedrooms, one study room, an enclosed kitchen, and living and dining areas.

Prestige Global Designs’ brief was to create a home that would look different and interesting for a family of three, so they created a whimsical mood throughout, whilst increasing the functionality of the living areas through ingenious space planning, a selection of furniture and lighting, and providing customised finish to materials to ensure oneof-a-kind uniqueness. Consistent with the whimsical theme, bold colours, strong motifs and textured materials were used throughout the apartment. The star of the show is located in the dining area. Pink heron wallpaper by Gucci takes pride of place, against a curated composition of softly curved pieces from Gubi.

The client’s brief for the Whimsical Kitchen project was to create a functional yet unique gourmet space with lots of storage. Prestige Global Designs decided to turn the old wet and dry kitchen layout into one spacious area with no barriers. The white Caesarstone countertop basks in natural light giving the look of a bigger and open space, with pops of green to add a little flair while keeping the brightness. The exposed walls are covered in striking glossy tiles. The fun pendant lights and counter chairs add a pop of pink, whilst blue cabinetry that extends up to the ceiling gives the illusion of a larger space while drawing the eye to the statement shades.

Kingsford Waterbay Dark Decadence

Situated in the North-East region of Singapore, Kingsford Waterbay is a development comprising of tall buildings that accommodate 1,157 apartment units, six strata terrace houses, and two semi-detached homes. The most prominent feature is the unblocked view of the spectacular Serangoon River. The 1,991 sq. ft. penthouse is the star of the show in that it combines two abutting units. The single-storey layout has seven bedrooms, six bathrooms, an enclosed kitchen, living and dining area. The clients are a close-knit family and so wanted a home to create memories with their children as they grow up.

A stand-out area is the foyer. As the timber doors open, it reveals a striking incandescent entryway. Beautifully layered is a sculptural pedestal of fine dark wood, gold fluted glass and a rounded rectangular mirror. The immaculate details are only a teaser for the surprises found further within the residence.

Nestled in one of the best residential locations in Singapore, Dark Decadence is a four-storey residence that includes four bedrooms, an enclosed kitchen, living and dining areas, and a swimming pool. The owners, who are parents of two teenagers, envisioned a dwelling with predominantly black details and black materials that would give it a unique identity.

Also key to their requirements were spaces where they can entertain guests. Over the years, the family acquired a colourful assortment of Bearbricks and Kaws figurines, which they wanted to display throughout the home as accent pieces; the husband also wanted the right conditions for his prized bonsai trees to thrive. The result was a stunning home where the family can make more memories.
